Hip Extensor Stretch

Hinge forward at your hips, bringing your chest forward over your toes. Raise one foot and bend your right knee in front of you. Stay leaning forward as you stretch your leg back. Swing your opposite arm forwards as you would when running. Return your knee in front of you and repeat with the other leg.

Plantar Flexor Stretch

Standing tall with your hands on your hips, raise one foot a few inches, keeping your leg straight. Point your foot down, and then bring your toes up, pointing your foot up. Repeat this ten times then return to standing and repeat with the other foot.

Whilst beating records and keeping fit are the elements of running that keep us motivated, staying injury free is always the goal. Perform these five stretches before every run, and the chances of picking up a niggling injury will be minimised.

If you are unfortunate enough to pick up a slight injury the TENS machine can offer effective pain relief. However, if you think you may be injured, please seek professional medical advice.
